Artist of the Week: Grand Archives

admin — Sat, 27 Oct 2007 19:28:22 +0000

Seattle-based Grand Archives is an indie rock band (signed to Sub Pop) featuring four male vocalists, including Mat Brooke, co-founder of softcore cult-favorites Carissa’s Wierd (not to mention an ex-member of Band of Horses). Other members include Jeff Montano, Curtis Hall and Ron Lewis. Judging from the first material, Grand Archives isn’t a drastic change from the songwriting shown by Brooke in both Band of Horses and (even more so) in Carissa’s Wierd. The latter in which he took even more part in the song-writing process.
On the 6th of April, the band name was changed from Archives to Grand Archives.

Song of The Week: Spoon - Don´t you Evah

mashishka — Thu, 20 Sep 2007 18:19:42 +0000

Lyrics

Ablum: Ga Ga Ga Ga Ga
Song: 4/10

Bet you got it all planned right
Bet you never worry
never even feel a fright
Bet you got it all planned right
Never fit to worry
never even feel a fright.

Single sleeps alone
and I know you don’t really mind
Five years by your side
so I know you really don’t mind

Don’t you evah,
be down,
I said don’t evah,
because it’s gonna keep ‘em hanging around’

Never
deep down
I said don’t evah
because it’s gonna keep ‘em hanging around’

Don’t you never think it’s right
Bet you think you had to but it doesn’t feel right
Bet you never think it feels right
Famous-sounding words make your head feel light

Petals getting picked
with the love-yous
and the love-you-nots

Five years going by
Everyone is standing on their side

Don’t you evah,
be down,
I said don’t evah,
because it’s gonna keep ‘em hanging around’

Never
deep down
I said don’t evah
because it’s gonna keep ‘em hanging around’

Don’t you evah,
be down,
I said don’t evah,
because it’s gonna keep ‘em hanging around’

Five years going by
everyone is standing on their side

Never
deep down
I said don’t ever
cause it’s gonna keep him hanging around

Five years going by
everyone is standing on their side

I said don’t ever need to worry
cause it’s gonna feel all right

Evah

Song of The Week: Jeff Buckley - Forget Her

mashishka — Fri, 14 Sep 2007 20:24:29 +0000

while the city’s busy sleeping
all your troubles lie awake
i walk the streets to stop my weeping
but she’ll never change her ways

don’t fool yourself
she was heartache from the moment that you met her
my heart feels so still
as i try to find the will to forget her somehow
oh i think i’ve forgotten her now

her love is a rose dead and dying
dropping her petals and man i know
all full of wine the world before her
but sober with no place to go

don’t fool yourself
she was heartache from the moment that you met her
my heart is frozen still
as i try to find the will to forget her somehow
she’s somewhere out there now

oh my tears fall down as i tried to forget
the love was a joke from the day that we met
all of the words all of her men
all of my pain when i think back to when
remember her hair as it shone in the sun
it was there on the bed when i knew what she’d done
tell yourself over and over you wont ever need her again

don’t fool yourself
she was heartache from the moment that you met her
oh my heart is frozen still
as i try to find the will to forget her somehow
she’s out there somewhere now

oh
she was heartache from the day that i first met her
my heart is frozen still
as i try to find the will to forget you somehow
cause i know you’re somewhere out there right now

Song of The Week: Interpol - Pace is The Trick

mashishka — Wed, 22 Aug 2007 16:47:13 +0000

Album: Our Love To Admire
Track: 6/11

You can’t hold it to tight
These matters of security
You don’t have to be wound so tight
Smoking on the balcony
But it’s that sleaze in a park
You women you have no self-control,
The angels remark outside
You were known for insatiable means
I don’t know a thing

I’ve seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I’ve seen love, and I followed the speeding of starswept night

Yeah pace is the trick

And to all the destruction in men
Well I see you as you take your pride
My lioness your defenses seem wise I can impress
And detentions are demised, my lioness
Can’t you hurt it some, think I hurt it

I’ve seen love, and I followed the speeding of starlight
I’ve seen love and I followed the speeding of starswept night

And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun, see how I stun

And to all the destruction in men
And to all the corruption in my hand
And now I select you, slow down I let you
See how I stun see how I stun
And now I select you, slow down I let you
I always follow the speeding of starswept night
You don’t hold, I can’t go on

His musical career received early support from a dedicated Republic of Ireland fan base. His first two albums A Century Ends (1993) and Flesh (1994) made Gray a popular in folk-rock circles. Third album, Sell, Sell, Sell was released in 1996 and this was time when he was seen use his now-trademark blend of folk, alternative rock and electronics for the first time.

His breakthrough into the pop mainstream came in year 1998 with the worldwide release of his fourth album, White Ladder. In November 2002, Gray released A New Day at Midnight. The new release did not receive the same critical acclaim as the previous one, but still went straight in at Number One. In March 2007, Gray released the compilation album Shine: The Best of the Early Years.
